Object Tracking Stuck at Initializing

Hi everyone,

I just started using the Premiere Pro beta to test out the new object tracking feature. No matter how long I wait, it gets stuck at "Initializing" and just keeps spinning.

My setup: Windows 11, Premiere Pro beta 26.0, GPU 5080, CPU Ryzen 9800X3d. The footage is from an iPhone 17.

Things I've already tried: clearing the media cache, converting the file to ProRes, and nesting the clip before tracking. Nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any ideas?

      I’m also struggling with this.

      No matter what I do (I’ve tried everything OP said as well) nothing works.

      Ryzen 9950x3d, 7900XTX, Win11

      Such a great feature that I was using on a project, but is now unusable.
      Please help 🙏🏻
